Crucial conversations chapters8/23/2023 You get access to the authors’ video archive with many of the conversation tools acted out. Though I have not read the first edition, there are some great bonuses in the second. If you aren’t sure if this book is right for you, just flip to Chapter 10 and read through some scenario’s where conversation is crucial and you will be convinced. * The last three chapters are very practical explanations and tools from the rest of the book. Very good, especially the section on taking another look at victims, villains, and the helpless. * The advice in Chapter 6 on how to reframe your stories and control emotions. \”Lord, help me to forgive those who sin differently than I.\” * The Chapter 5 tools for creating a Mutual Purpose. * The advice on page 46,47 on overcoming Fool’s Choice’s. Fool’s Choice is a false either/or dichotomy and the authors do a great job of exposing it, maybe the best I have seen in print.Īfter arguing why conversations are so important, the authors go on to give you the tools to help you communicate effectively. They argue, unsurprisingly, that it is the ability to effectively communicate and not be locked into a Fool’s Choice when making hard decisions. The authors start off with a detailed discussion on what makes someone successful. Whether you are looking for conversation advice in business, marriage, love, friendship, or just about anything else, this book will help you push through your emotions and accomplish your real purpose in conversation. It has valuable, practical tools that will help you have conversations that are useful in very real ways. Crucial Conversations is the type of book that you can recommend to just about anyone and have them thank you for it. Although this book has already sold over 2 million copies, I did not pick one up until this second edition came out.
